edit: i just don't get what is so ****ing magical about vtec. it is nothing but ingenuitive thinking being applied to and engine to gain the "have your cake and eat it too"

i guess thinking outside the box is amazing to some uneducated simpletons.
I never said it was on a GSR you dipsh!t. I just said there is one and I wanted it. Get your sh!t straight

Edit: Who said VTEC was that amazing? If you don't like VTEC that much then sell your RSX...I never said it was the almighty powerful and great VTEC, its just cool to have. It does give a significant power gain and yeah it is pretty smart. (ingenuitive isn't a word...) But you weren't the genius that created it were you? No, so stop acting like a smart ass and just give out straight info without the BS...Thank you and good day.
